Accommodation Near Adelaide Oval

Introduction:

If you are looking for accommodation near Adelaide Oval there are several choices and this preferred pick gives you a good option quite close and very easy to travel to and from the Oval, and you can save money compared to a hotel.

It is so simple to get to the oval and there are several free or cheap transport options, including walking, public transport (bus), and taxi. The bus is probably the easiest and it is normally also free (see more below).

Taxi is likely to be the quickest to the oval (and will be relatively cheap as it is not a very long ride). Of course walking and the bus are cheapest at zero (that is, no cost whatsoever).

A quick google search (Map provided below) suggests it’s about a 9 to 12 minute bus ride through cosmopolitan North Adelaide to the oval. Lets just say 10 minutes! The bus is normally free on match day and for special events like concerts. (You will need to confirm via the Transport authority, see further below.)

If you think you would enjoy the walk then it’s about 40 minutes and you can of course break up your walk if you stop along the way for a drink or a bite to eat in North Adelaide, which is a very popular thing to do and extends your enjoyment of match day.

Save money

Staying near Adelaide Oval just north of North Adelaide and catching the FREE BUS allows you to save on accommodation and transport. Note the free bus service would need to be provided by Adelaide Metro and is usually done so for major sporting events and concerts. Naturally we can’t guarantee you free bus transport and so we request you check with the suitable authority.

Compared to booking several rooms in a hotel for a large family or for several adults you will save a lot of money by booking this three bedroom home, which can sleep up to nine adults.

You have your own private space in which to socialise as a group.

Being a three bedroom home you can also cook your own meals in its cosy country-rustic style kitchen if you want to save even more money – but of course it is also close to many restaurant options.

Getting to the Oval or Adelaide CBD

This accommodation is close to Prospect Road just to the north of Adelaide, and so very near to Adelaide Oval.

Walk And Enjoy The Festive Atmosphere Surrounding The Oval.

It is common on match day to see several groups of people wearing their team colours walking along Prospect Road into North Adelaide to enjoy the atmosphere and then along to Adelaide Oval.

You might be surprised to think that walking is an option. As indicated, it is a moderate walk of about 40 minutes from the accommodation through North Adelaide to the Oval.

Many people are happy to walk to the Oval given they will probably be sitting down for quite some time at the Oval watching their match.

There are certainly no car parking hassles to worry about!

The pre-match and post-match atmosphere can be enjoyed in areas surrounding the Oval in North Adelaide and along Prospect Road, with sports fans showing off their allegiance to their teams and chatting with excitement.

After the match (or concert) you can again choose to break up your walk, as you might like to stop along the way as you take in one of the many opportunities for a coffee, other beverage or a bite to eat in one of many cafes and restaurants in North Adelaide. Many a discussion about your victory or regarding ‘that’ umpiring decision have been had at a venue along the way home!
